Endlessly Yours

The Wilder Brothers, Book 10

De: Carrie Ann Ryan

Narrado por: Kit Swann, Robert Hatchet

Four years ago, I promised my dying wife that I’d do one thing: I’d move on.

And I knew as I took that oath, I would break it.

Then I saw Rory. The woman I’d met on one of my darkest nights, and the woman I can’t ignore. Our one night is a secret we swore we’d never tell.

When I see her, I see a glimpse of what could be in the fire in her eyes.

When she sees me, she sees the grumpy, annoying Wilder brother who could shatter her dreams and her heart.

With one stolen kiss, we both know we have a choice: to keep running or finally give in.

Only when she suddenly finds herself the guardian to her two nieces, the world crumbles around us once again. She needs to protect her family, and I know I can’t let her do it alone.

The pull between us refuses to go away, but now I’ll have to choose which promise to break. And if I’m strong enough to be the final Wilder to fall.

**Endlessly Yours is a single guardian, love after loss, one night stand romance in the Wilder Brothers series featuring Brooks and Rory. Each one can be listened to as a complete standalone. A HEA is guaranteed!**

The Wilders will live on in my heart forever

Robert Hatchet and Kit Swann’s wonderful voices brought this emotionally charged tale to life. This last installment in the Wilder Brother series was heart wrenching and had me shedding more than a few tears. Brooks and Rory have a complicated past that makes you believe in fate and destiny. I’ve enjoyed getting to know all the Wilders, but I’m secretly hoping they’ll pop up again in other series.

Love Rory

The relationship between Rory + Brooks is one that tugs at your heartstrings and make you root for them. A second chance, beautiful, widower story that will capture your heart.

Endlessly Yours

Noooo the final Wilder book! Brooks is the last Wilder standing and his past is not for the faint of heart. While Brooks and Rory are busy trying to avoid each other, her life is flipped upside down. While I am sad this series is done, it set up for the Ashford Creek books perfectly. I also think Brooks was the best one to end the series so we got to know him in bits and pieces since we meet all the cousins. He and Rory were so great together and Alice and Cameron were great to the story.

Brooks and Rory

Endlessly Yours moved me deeply; it touched a place deep in my heart, possibly because I'm a widow, and could totally understand where Brooks was coming from. Although I have loved every book in The Wilder Brothers Series, this one affected me more than the earlier books and has become my favourite.

Brooks and Rory’s story drew me in, pulled me into their lives and kept me listening until the last word. Brooks lost his wife, his childhood sweetheart, to cancer, but before she died, she extracted a promise from him that he would try to find love again and not spend his life alone. It's a promise he had no intention of keeping. But despite the walls he built around his heart, everything changed when he met Rory.

Brooks and Rory first met on the anniversary of his wife's death, it was in the airport lounge bar. She was hurting too; these two grieving people found themselves drawn together and spent the night together, neither knew that they had people in common and neither expected to ever meet again, but fate had other plans for them.....

When Brooks sees Rory again at the Wilder Retreat, he discovers that the woman he made love with is his sister-in-law's best friend. Now both find themselves working at the Wilder Retreat, whilst they try to ignore each other, the attraction and chemistry which drew them together initially are still there.

Rory’s a self-employed illustrator of both romance and children’s books; it's a job she loves, and she's become a good friend to all the Wilder women. The only family she has is her twin sister and her two nieces from whom she is estranged; despite their estrangement, she loves her sister deeply, so when her sister and her brother-in-law are killed in an aircrash, it affects her deeply, but the Wilders, especially Brooks, step up to help. Brooks made sure they had a safe place to live by letting them live in a house he owns next door to his, because the apartment Rory had was too small.

Her sister and her husband were members of a 'cult like organisation' who have inherited everything on their deaths. But her sister's Will has named Rory as guardian to her two nieces, a responsibility she wholeheartedly embraces. But it's not an easy task. The girls have had a tough time; Alice, the youngest, is a cutie, while Cameron, who is almost a teenager, is angry and resentful, and doesn't know how to cope with all the changes, and Ms Ryan's writing style makes you feel the hurt that these girls have experienced as well as Rory's sense of inadequacy.

Brooks tries to keep his distance and hide behind his grumpy facade, but it proves impossible; he's never forgotten their night together or the feelings Rory evoked in him and makes a vow to help her and protect her and the girls any way he can. The instant chemistry they shared when they first met is still there. But they will need more than chemistry if they are going to make things work

I loved these two together; they were perfect for each other.

The narration is wonderfully performed by Robert Hatchett and Kit Swann, both did an amazing job bringing this story to life and bringing every emotion to the fore. Robert’s narration of Brooks was gruff yet protective; he was the embodiment of Brooks, whilst Kit brought Rory’s genuine, kind and caring personality alive.

Wonderful ending to the Wilder Brothers Series

This was just the way I needed to see the Wilder Brothers series wrap up. I had been feeling for Brooks through the earlier books and his grumpy ways. Rory felt so right for the match up with Brooks. The emotional path these two walked was beautiful to witness. I love when the main characters both have things to work on and work through. This was a great story of how people come together to be something more than on their own.

Romantic, emotional and steamy

Oh my heart, all the emotions were poured into this story. “Endlessly Yours” is a romantic, emotional, and steamy small town, second chance at love romance that was a wonderful addition to the “The Wilder Brothers” series.

It’s been four years since Brooks lost his wife to cancer and he made a promise to her that he wouldn’t give up on life and love. But when his one night stand on the anniversary of her death happens to be a close family friend, Brooks is thrown for a loop. Rory is close with most of the Wilder women and when she finds out her estranged sister has passed, she leans on them even more. Especially because she is now the guardian of her two nieces who miss their mom terribly. Brooks has never forgotten their night and vows to help her and protect her in any way he can. The chemistry they had that night is still there and as they spend time together, lines start to blur again.

From the first chapter, I was hooked on Brooks and Rory’s story. Brooks suffered a great loss losing his wife to cancer and that shaped him for sure. But under that wall he built, is a guy who is still so capable of love and I loved how he found it with Rory. Rory is an amazing woman and I loved how close she was with the Wilder women. She’s an illustrator for children’s books as well as romance books and that is such a fun career. Her twin sister and her were estranged but she always loved her no matter what. And she immediately stepped up to raise her nieces. Those little girls had a tough time and she was the rock they needed. Brooks had a grumpy exterior but he was there for Rory and her nieces without hesitation. The chemistry between them was instant when they met that first night and lingered underneath while they figured things out. But they also built a relationship on trust because they had been so much before they had even met. I loved these two together and their story was perfect.

Robert Hatchett and Kit Swann narrated as Brooks and Rory and they did an amazing job bringing this story to life. Both were so passionate and nailed all the emotions that were in this story. Robert’s narration was gruff and protective, just like Brooks. Kit brought Rory’s genuine and caring personality alive perfectly.

The Final Wilder Brothers book

Endlessly Yours is the tenth and final Wilder Brothers book and is a bittersweet ending to this series. We follow Brooks on a journey to open up and love again with Rory after tragedy has struck both of them and left them floundering.

Four years ago, Brooks lost his wife to cancer. He made her a promise right before she died that he would find love again. On the first anniversary of her death, he finds himself at an airport bar drowning his sorrows. And this is where he meets a woman who is also drowning her sorrows. They hook up for one night.

Rory was struggling with the death of her parents and the fact that her twin sister had joined a commune and wanted nothing to do with her. That meant, she lost her entire family, including her nieces, in succession. She is on her way home, after settling some affairs for her parents estate, and decides to have a drink in the airport bar. Never did she expect to meet a man there and have a one night hook up.

When Rory walks in to the Wilder Resort to help her best friend marry the man of her dreams, she never expected to come face to face with her one night stand from years ago.

Sadly, Brooks would prefer to forget that night happened three years ago. But he cannot forget the woman.

When Rory is notified that her twin sister and brother in law have been killed and she is now the guardian of their two children, the Wilder women rally around her. And even Brooks gives her the keys to one of his furnished rental homes so they have enough space for all three of them.

Brooks always seems to be around, checking on them and making sure everything is going okay for them. He is worried about the girls and about Rory. Spending all of this time with them is making it hard to pretend that he and Rory do not have chemistry.

But when his past inserts itself in his present, Brooks has to have a very hard conversation. He never expected to tell his in laws about the promise Amara, his wife, asked him to make. He never expected to honor that promise. But when they walk up on a family get together at his home, he needs to have a hard conversation.

While he is having this conversation, the weather turns and mother nature will wield her wrath. When Rory and her oldest niece are caught in the melee, truths will be spoken, fears will be verbalized and grief will come to the forefront.

This is such an emotional story. Truths will be spoken, and need to be spoken, but it will break your heart. Promises have been made that seem impossible to keep. One will be kept, but one will be broken and it will cause so much grief to a young woman.

Be prepared to cry. Be prepared to be mad. Be prepared to be scared for others.

But when someone is in trouble, feelings are put aside and it becomes all about saving them. And in the process healing some holes in broken hearts.

It has been awhile since I have listened to a Robert Hatchett narration. I forgot how much I truly enjoy his voice. He plays Brooks so well with his grief and how patient he is with Rory's nieces. And Kit Swann is always a joy to listen to. I love her kid voice and her snarky pre-teen voice.

Great read!

I really enjoyed this one! It is an emotional read but very well done! I really felt for Brooks and how much he was hurting with losing his wife and him finding his way forward. This one has a bit of a 2nd chance aspect to it as well since on the first anniversary of his wife's death, he ends up hooking up with Rory. Rory was the first person he was with after his wife died and he had to deal with the emotions that came with that. At the time, neither knew of their connection that they would have since they met at an airport hotel bar. Fast forward about 4 years later and they are trying to deal with the attraction and chemistry they still feel while Brooks is determined not to act on it, though they share a kiss and have to figure that out. Then tragedy strikes for Rory with her estranged sister and brother in law dying and she is now the sole guardian to her 2 nieces, 12 and 7. Brooks steps up to help and his protective instincts are working though he is still trying to figure that out. I loved watching these two come together in the midst of everything going on. Brooks is there for Rory and the girls though he gives them a little bit of time to settle in. He has an idea of what they are going through, having lost his wife and he is a great steady presence for them all. I loved seeing them find their way forward and start trying together. This story deals with grief and the aftermath of that but it has a hopeful feeling overall to it though it is heartbreaking at times. It felt genuine, honest and realistic as they all deal with it differently. This was a great read and I loved finally seeing Brooks find his happy ending and while I am sad that this series is finished, I am hopeful that we will get to see them down the line somewhere, somehow.
The narrators did a fantastic job with the story and bringing it to life. It is dual narration and I thought they did well with differentiating characters voices and personalities throughout the story and dealing with all the emotions happening in this one.
